Associated Press PhotoPaul Otellini built at the Intel Developer Forum last fallIntel CEO Paul Otellini is in Hillsboro today, a brief visit that included an open forum with employees at the company's Jones Farm campus early this afternoon and "general business group conversations."

Oregon is Intel's largest site, with more than 15,000 employees, but Intel is a highly distributed company and it's more common for Oregon employees to go to him than for Otellini to come up here.

In 2007, he told me he's in town "a few times a year, and I come up for a variety of things. I come up for
conferences, I come up for operations reviews, the usual boss stuff."

No word on what he said at today's chat -- I wasn't there. Were you? What did you hear?
